 I am deeply convinced that happiness does not exist in this world. |
| My childhood was appalling. |
| I was never afraid of anything in the world except the dentist. |
| I have had four happy days in my life, and three of them turned out to be illusions. |
| Even the most malignant gods would not continue to inflict life upon humanity, time without end. |
| In sleep, you are safe from the revolting mechanics of living and being a prey to outrageous fortune. |
| It is human nature to instinctively rebel at obscurity or ordinariness. |
| My literary success meant nothing to me. |
| I often reread books I have written. |
| Though I am a Catholic, a professing one, I have serious doubts about the survival of the human personality after death. |
| I am the skeptic of skeptics. |
| At 8, I made a pact with God. |
| I will ge glad to have done with this life forever. |
| If they can't do it in California, it can't be done anywhere. |
| I'm not that interested in people. |
| I am a Westerner of Westerners! |
| The stalwart soul has the will to live and is eager for the race. |
| I will know him by his eyes. |
| Women's Lib? I couldn't stand it. |
| Learning should be a joy and full of excitement. It is life's greatest adventure; it is an illustrated excursion into the minds of the noble and the learned. |
